My mum; THE most amazing, utterly selfless, loving, giving, silly, funny and brilliant friend I could have ever been fortunate enough to know and be loved by, Avril (Frankie) Frances Lewis. I miss you every second, Mum xxx
About me: I'm an idiot, most of the time. I love the way Crispian Mills says the numbers "two" and "four" at the beginning of the song 'Hush'... ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
Thank you for the b-day wishes my darling! I never heard back from you about the marathon. How did it go down? I hope that you were pleased enough to come to NY in November! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It's so great that you're running the London marathon. Best of luck, sweetie. Don't worry about your time, just concentrate on finishing. I'm so proud of you! xxxxxxxx P.S. Would love to meet up for a beer when you're in NYC.

Erm can I be in your top friends? Think of all the fun we have had from 1995-present day. The jokes, the laughter, the Baz-teasing, the Neve Campbell storing, the sick-dancing, the Muswell Hill toilet-breaks, the films on your camcorder- ring a bell? Memories are like diamonds.
lalalaloser....your dog would rather play fetch by itself....
"Weird Al" Yankovic composed and recorded a parody of "You're Beautiful" entitled "You're Pitiful," intended for release on his twelfth album. Yankovic had done so with permission from Blunt himself. However Blunt's label, Atlantic Records, chose to forbid Yankovic from releasing his parody. Yankovic removed the song from his album to avoid conflict with the record label, and in June of 2006 posted it as a free download on his own website.
here is the song
I pretend that I watch Grand Designs Kath and Kim and Will and Grace. Guilty Pleasures - Gilmore girls, Dawsons Creek, Friends. Well actually I used to watch alot of Friends.
Hey, we have an artist in common on our music list. I bet you didn't expect that.
I would have put 'Life without Dick' on my movies list, but I ran out of space.
I didn't get into him until his newest album (Seger Sessions). I have always "liked" his music, but never listened to it much until the Seger album came out. Most people I know respect him, I don't know if everyone likes him.
